3.
HDCD is an encoding/decoding technology that greatly
reduces the distortion occurring at the time of digital
recording while maintaining compatibility with the
conventional CD format. HDCD allows 24bit data to be
converted into the 16-bit data of current CDs with no loss in
sound quality.
The use of this HDCD decoder makes it possible to achieve
the high resolution and low distortion characteristic of HDCD
when playing HDCD-compatible discs, and DENON's digital
technology optimizes the high sound quality possibilities of
HDCD technology. Furthermore, normal CDs, DVDs and
HDCD-compatible CDs are automatically identified, and the
optimum digital signal processing for that type of disc is used.

The DVD-9000 uses a video D/A converter that conducts D/A
conversion of all video signals at 14 bits and allows 4X
oversampling in the progressive mode to achieve the high
quality picture that DVDs are meant to provide. In addition,
NSV technology reduces noise upon D/A conversion.
